 Welcome
to the colourful world of Sanriotown. A bright and cheerful place
which has been overrun by aliens which look like boxes. You have to
skate around destroying these boxes equipped with your Magic Wand
and stop them taking over the town, with partner in crime Batz-Maru,
although the game features around 20 characters associated with the
Hello Kitty brand.
This is obviously aimed at a young audience as it is very
bright and full of colourful things to see, but fans of Hello
Kitty will be enchanted as you watch her skating around and
kicking-ass with her sparkly wand. Because of this it is quite a
straightforward looking game, with the main objectives being almost
purely action-based and easy to complete, although obviously,
things would get harder as the game progresses.
Apparently
there are different ways of completing your  objectives, but it
isn’t clear whether these affect what happens in the game, and
there are puzzles involved but these are few and far between. You
also can pick up coins to buy things with - cue squeals of delight
as Hello Kitty looks so cute in the new outfit you
have just brought her - although from what I gather they aren’t
essential to completing the game.
Fans
of Hello Kitty will love this game as it just brings so much
together from many different aspects of the world they all live in,
though older players may find it a bit too simple to find it much
of a challenge. This hardly matters because I think fans will enjoy
this game because of the Hello Kitty brand. It’s scheduled
for release on the GameCube in the summer in the
US
with a possible
UK
release expected before the year is out; cue a massive
merchandising campaign… just in time for Christmas.
